Black Guillemot

A few pairs visible around the harbour wall at Holyhead, one of few sites they can be seen in Wales and England. Noted circular swimming display.

Severn Dipper

Monoprint dipper from the balcony at Pen-y-Graig. wading in torrents, colours from the reflection of the moss clad wall as morning light hits it, an affect that lasts a few minutes and emphasised through cropping affect of scope. Two juveniles about and some territorial disputes. Perhaps because of close proximity of possible nest, the dippers seem more sedentary than usual. Also seem attracted to this stretch during receding flood waters.
